Hollywood Smile
The Hollywood Smile uses films of various thicknesses to hide imperfections related to pigmentation and alignment.
Types of Hollywood Smile
1- Veneers
Veneers are porcelain films ranging in thickness from 0.5 mm to 2 mm. They are attached to the front of the tooth to cover all imperfections. Because veneers are relatively thick, your dentist will need to file down your enamel to make room for the veneer.
Porcelain is a highly durable element that behaves exactly like natural teeth. It adds an authentic charm to the smile due to its colour-matching ability.
Veneer Advantages;
Suitable for deep pigmentation
Natural results are obtained
Corrects minor and moderate alignment problems
corrects minor damage
2- Lumineers
Lumineers are ultra-thin films with a thickness of 0.3 mm that resemble lenses. Lumineers are made of porcelain but have great durability despite their thin structure.
Because they are thin, your dentist does not have to file your enamel or teeth to fit the films.
Advantages of Lumineers
Durable and strong
Natural results are achieved
Suitable for small pigmentation
No enamel intervention required
3- Zirconium
Coatings made of zirconium have chemical properties similar to titanium. Their durability, strength and light transmission are also unique.
Zirconium veneers are unique in that they reflect light, which allows them to provide very natural results.
Depending on the thickness of your zirconium veneers, your doctor may or may not file your tooth enamel.
Advantages of Zirconium Veneers;
Durable and strong
Natural results are achieved
Unique in terms of light transmission
Suitable for deep pigmentation and minor misalignments
Corrects structural defects in teeth
Hollywood Smile Procedure
There will be a treatment process before starting your Hollywood Smile treatment. It is essential that the Hollywood Smile is placed on a healthy tooth structure. Your dentist will use x-rays to thoroughly examine your teeth for any problems. If there is inflammation, gum disease or cavities, your dentist will deal with these first.
At your next visit, your dentist will file your teeth if necessary. This process depends on your preference for a Hollywood Smile. With Lumineers, for example, this step is not necessary.
After this, your dentist will take a mould of your mouth to get impressions of your mouth structure. In addition, a colour adjustment is made for your Hollywood Smile and this information is sent to an off-site laboratory.
Within a few days, you will have your custom-made Hollywood Smile and your dentist will fix the structures in place.

Hollywood Smile Care
Taking care of your Hollywood Smile is one of the secrets to lifelong results. And fortunately, this is not difficult.
You should take care of your Hollywood Smile like your natural teeth. Brush twice a day, floss and use antibacterial products. It is important to prevent food build-up and plaque formation.
Another point to keep in mind is not to put pressure on your teeth. Do not use your teeth to open objects.
Do I Need to Change My Food Habits After My Hollywood Smile?
Not necessarily. However, it is good to avoid the possibility of staining by using products such as red wine and cigarettes. This ensures that the glow of the Hollywood Smile stays for a long time.
Apart from that, the Hollywood Smile will not stop you from eating your favourite foods and snacks.
How Long Does the Hollywood Smile Procedure Generally Take?
It takes approximately 3 to 5 days until the Hollywood Smile is placed.
